We are pleased to announce that Lauren Ridgway will be joining the ESS team as the new ELA/ELD Teacher-on-Loan at the beginning of the next school year. Most recently, Lauren has worked as a Student Support Coordinator, an EL Coordinator/ELA Consulting Teacher, and a classroom teacher in the Rincon Valley Union School District. She brings with her a depth of knowledge and expertise around the ELA/ELD Frameworks and high-quality instructional practices in support of student learning. She has also distinguished herself as a highly collaborative and self-reflective educator who is able to work alongside colleagues to create powerful learning opportunities for all students. We are excited to have Lauren join our team.

"I like Amarosa because there's a much smaller student count and so teachers can be one-on-one with you. They can actually help you and be one-on-one with you while the class is doing something else. I feel like that's a huge game-changer." - Leilan, Student
